Is the wire pushed firmly down on the plug?

Ive had good luck with champ D-21's for going on 20 yrs. Maybe you have old or cheap wires that are leaking to ground. ken ct. Also in a 36

If you have carbon radio resistor type wires this happens when they get old and break down. Start your engine in the dark and see if you can see sparking along the plug and coil wires.
